THE Gauteng Provincial Government has praised the registration for the Crush noLova Jobs and Skills programme, with the department confirming that over 500 000 people have registered over the weekend.
Lesufi said despite challenges that were experienced with the Department of Employment and Labour website where applicants were supposed to apply, all unemployed applicants were assisted with manual application at the sites across the province to enable them to access employment and training opportunities.
The Premier said the provincial government was pleased with the turnout over the weekend, but that the high amount of registration applications is a testament that South Africans are struggling.
“We are indeed proud that through this programme people who today are relying on social grants and handouts from other family members will get job opportunities and necessary skills to create jobs for themselves and others,” Lesufi said.
